GOG has the same drawbacks as Steam without any of the useful features. They should cut down on their "owning games" lies and spend time improving their platform instead.

That's for the gog service itself.

No, that's for all content:

and to download, access and/or stream (depending on the content) and use GOG content.

Which they define as:

1.3 Also, when we're talking about games, in-game content, virtual items or currency or GOG videos or other content or services which you can purchase or access via GOG services, we’ll just call them “GOG games” or “GOG videos” respectively and when we talk about them all together they are “GOG content”.

The license is with regards to "GOG Service", not "GOG Contents". You need the former to get access to the latter, sure. But what isn't clear about this?

You still own the contents (though, as mentioned, individual titles may have additional blablabla). If you don't think this distinction makes sense when it comes to GoG vs Steam, then maybe you're just discussing something entirely different?
